It doesn't inspire me to be more compassionate from what I read about you. If anything, it makes me think you're kind of shallow for even saying that. You're either good at something for its own sake or you're really not and trying to make up for it by pretending you are to the point you actually believe that you are. If you were really that compassionate about people and animals you wouldn't have the time to talk about it - nor would you wish to.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
